Topic: Alacrity withdrawal Subject: Trying not to cry :(
Roger what can I say that has not already been said? Well hell lets see.
I will miss your games but I know I still have your real life friendship. You more then anyone else taught me how to run an online play by post game and for that I will always owe you.
Even though you and I have had our up's and down's you never stopped being my friend. Though my poor sense of humor and lack of social grace has put me at odds with many Innmates and staff you still never turned away a phone call. If for nothing else, no matter what the future holds, for that you will always be my friend.
Real life first, always................

Welcome Miss Oxxia to our humble home. I'm pretty sure you'll enjoy it here and make friends that love RPG games as much as you will if you stay long enough.
I'm also in Brom's cyberpunk game and if descriptions are correct I'm the tank of the bunch so feel free to use me as a meat shield
Again Welcome to the Red Dragon Inn.

Topic: Flesh & Blood - A CyberPunk Game Subject: Thanks Brom
I'll do a quick edit.
Ayrn, Casino is not staring at Blossom. Rather he has at certain times given her a look depending on the direction of the conversation. Staring implies that he has only looked at her the entire meet

Topic: Flesh & Blood - A Night City Adventure Subject: Ok maybe a lil blunt :)
Casino sat at the sidewalk café close to the public agent that he used in place of his own agent, sold a few week's back, to pay off another gambling debt. He was waiting on his partner Vegas to call. Being that they were both tight on Euro's Vegas had decided to be more aggressive in finding work and was due to call soon. He'd once called himself a different street name but had been nicknamed Casino by Vegas when the older man learned of his gambling addiction. For some reason call it sarcasm, call it self inflicted shame on the nature of his addiction, the name had stuck and Casino was now his street name and ironically was better known then his old one. Then the phone rang and he moved to pick it up.
"Vegas, yeah its me, Where, ok, right got it,. Be there in 30 mins"
Hanging up he caught the next bus and to his surprise actually reached the local, a fish processing warehouse, 10 minutes early. As he waited for Vegas across the street he caught looks from a group of ten boosters hanging outside the entrance to the alley between the warehouse and a boat repair facility in equally grimy repair. The boosters all wore various shades of gray battlemasks shaped in the grimacing affectation of historical samurai. Their clothing was more modern—digital fabric mixed with scrounged Gibson gear and various Icon America and Uniwear accoutrements.
All of them had at least one thing in common besides those masks: Katana's and submachine guns of various make. Casino knew them to be members of the boostergang the Grey Samurai
without guessing that they were muscle for the meet going down.
Not to be outdone he casually smiled at them showing teeth and the H&K MPK-11 SMG and M-205 grenade launcher attached to it. Then Vegas was there and the two made their way inside.
As the next to the last to enter with Vegas behind his bulk his attention was first drawn to an Asian women about 5 foot 7 inches tall with two inch heels on her knee-high combat boots making her in reality 5 foot 5 inches. On her right leg a camo stocking pulled up to mid-thigh while her left thigh was bare up to the hem of her black, Icon America boy-shorts. Wearing a Gibson Battlegear jacket of black and red, along with a dark red cross between a sports bra and a tank-top was clearly meant to draw ones eye to her well toned bare midriff. Wearing bright pink heart-shaped mirror shades, her platinum blond hair, slightly curly, slightly frizzed, from the moisture in the air, done up playfully and short, Casino could not help groaning to himself.
Frack there goes any hope of not being noticed, she stands out like a neon light crying pleasure's within. what kind of job is this?
However as he thought that, his eyes were drawn to her right hip and the 12" combat knife strapped there on her uniware utility belt and a Luigi Franchi shotgun tucked under her left arm quickly told Casino she might be flashy but she was no alley way hooker. With an extra large bivvy bag draped over her other shoulder and a small boom-a-rang shaped metal moon next to her left eye clearly indicating additional visual NuCybe alterations, Casino pegged her for a netrunner or possibly a medtech?
Next his gaze fell upon a young man as he entered behind he and Vegas of average build, wearing black city camo Gibson Battle gear fatigues and Ruf Tread Combat Boots. Casino could see, barely, black hair underneath a black Icon America head wrap. On top of that a battle mask printed with the face of a cracked skull and sculpted to match the design. Strapped to the outside waistband of his utility belt on the right side was an Armalite .44 much like Casino's two only he was unable to tell if they were smart linked. Casino's gaze was next drawn to the kid's bare hands where he could easily that the young man had some affiliation with the Edgerunner Alt-Cult backed up by the bracers on each of his hands. The telltale crescent moon sliver of NuCybe on each side of his eyes indicated to Casino either a visual splice, or some another alteration. First guess, a netrunner or rigger.
Finally the last of the ‘guests' arrived and Casino's attention was at once drawn to the slung Nomad .44 Lever Action Rifle with a scope over the right shoulder of a man of average build wearing black Icon America fatigues and stocking cap over his short cut red hair. A battle mask, pulled up to rest on top of his head, looked ready for action. Geez what is it with these battle masks T
The print however on this mask was that of a Native American Warrior's face paint, chipped and scratched with use. Besides the rifle Casino spotted a Colt AMT handgun strapped to his right hip and a Kendachi Monoknife strapped to his left. If he had to guess he'd peg him as another solo, or maybe with the Native American theme, a nomad.
Deciding to stand instead of sit Casino listened to the fixer, her name Starlight, and her job pitch.
"Handle's Starlight, you're here ‘cause you need cash. I'll tell ya straight; this is black-op, no questions asked. Should be cake, but there are rules. You can't live by the rules and you walk, savvy? Rules are simple. Don't ask after Saint Nick. I'm the Mouth of Sauron. Two: This is, as I said, black-ops. We're playing low-key, not Loki. Saint Nick don't want no media, and don't want the wind t' sing of the thing to those Inside. So, we operate on the low."
Casino could not help but look towards the female runner as Starlight made it very clear this run was "low key" Ahh ok yeah
"Payday is two grand apiece for delivery. Five large for information leading to recovery by Saint Nick's team, and three grand apiece if those that stole from Saint Nick wind up in a body bank. The gig should be cake. This is a recovery mission. May require some investigation—which is why you're here Pretty Girl,"
Interesting what did this fixer mean by 'investigation' and why a hot as hell model looking runner? Casino had to admit the girl for all her flashiness was a looker.
"So, that's the nutshell. Any of you who don't think this is fly, the Samurais'll show you out. Now's your moment."
After a time of silent consent, the little woman continues by reaching inside her inner coat pocket and producing an agent in a designer case that blocks the make and model. Setting the device on the table in front of her she gives a little head nod. "Download pending."
Once the others had placed their agents on the table, Casino not having one, hear an indicator sound telling of an info dump. Looking at Vegas's agent with him and seeing about the kidnapped boy, he brought his eyes up to look at the fixer trying to get a read on her.
((Using my awareness/notice skill))
"Now's the time you raise your hands like good little boys and girls. You got questions, spill ‘em. Otherwise, we get to work."
"What's the catch? run's supposedly this easy, always have a catch. What happens if we don‘t get the boy back or he dies during recovery?"
Casino knew this might not be the right question to ask, but he'd been burned to many times to not get as much info on a run as possible. Plus he wanted to gauge the fixer's reaction to the question, that in and of itself could be a big tell if she was on the level..........

Topic: AMC's The Walking Dead Subject: A little guess game.
Ok question to all Walking Dead fans.
Who do you think Negan will kill in the season finale if they don't do it as a cliff hanger.
I think Abraham.
MAJOR SPOILER Stop reading now.........
Though Daryl may have been shot he I really think he is not dead. If he dies it will be by Negan's baseball bat not Dwight. Much more impact if he is killed by Negan that way. Plus as the #1 fav character Daryl's death would be a season final thing not a 1 episode before hand thing.

Topic: Star Trek: the Edge of Duty Subject: Slight backpost.
Stardate: 2365.02.07
USS Peregrine, Ship Interior -1900
With the knowledge that for some strange reason he was suddenly being transferred Rock found himself in a tough spot. Well nothing I can do about it right now He thought to himself. However there were two people he needed to talk to before leaving the ship.
Stardate: 2365.02.07
USS Peregrine, Main Engineering - 1903
Taking the lift Rock found himself in engineering looking for Caity. Spotting her slender yet athletic form at her duty station he headed over to her.
"Lt Morgan may I have a word with you?"
At her strange look he gave her a slight sign to stay professional before the other engineering crew. Moving with her to a corner out of sight of the main he turned to her, a sad look in his eyes.
"Rock what's wrong?" Caity asked before he could start.
"I'm being transferred, effective immediately"
"WHAT! No Rock why?"
"I don't know but I'm not the only one being reassigned I heard Doc Synklar and one or two others are also being replaced. It seems some of the older crew."
"Where's your next assignment?"
"That I don't know yet, has not been disclosed."
"Oh Rock" Rock could hear a tear behind those words as she moved in close to hold him. Hugging her tight he raised her face to his and kissed her deep.
"I love you Caity, I'll find a way back to this ship." A few more moments and another kiss and he left her embrace headed for his quarters to gather his gear.
Stardate: 2365.02.07
USS Peregrine, Ship Interior -1935
"Rockatansky to Reid"
=/="Lieutenant Reid"=/=
" Reid meet me at the docking bay in 5 minutes"
=/=Aye Sir, on my way.=/=
Star Base 118 Docking Bay 1940
As John approached Lt. "Rock" lifted hand his in greeting. He could see the Lt had his gear neatly packed.
"Reid I've been reassigned off the boat where I don't know yet. I need you to do the same type of good job you did for me to the next head of Sec/Tac. Now that's the official line here's the personal one. Keep an eye on the new transfers and watch Capt Drakes back I'm not 100% sure there is not a more deeper reason for these sudden transfers of key personal. And even more personal keep watch over Caity until I can find a way back to the Peregrine."
"Sir, I understand. You know I'll do my duty." John took Rock's hand again, "I have learned a lot from you in my shirt time in your command, thank you." John heard himself and realized how formal it must have sounded, but he couldn't help, so he just shrugged and smiled.
"You're a good officer Reid, I think it should be you taking over my job, but like I said this whole thing seems fishy. Watch your back" With a final salute Lt Maxwell Rockatansky turned and moved deeper into Starbase 118.........

Topic: Cyberpunk - Flesh & Blood Recruitment Subject: its actually easy
Cyberpunk just like any table top game played on rdinn is mostly a rp type game Boo Boo. The DM as normal does all rolls and such. Brom is a very good DM and like Olan I'm sure will be willing to help you understand the game.
Hell the last time we played Cyber he killed both myself, my in game GF and NPC best friend and yet I still want back in I always say give new things a try if after awhile they are not for you I'm sure we will understand.
Brom I still have my old sheet for Croaker should I just use him with a new name? Say as a Solo this time?

Topic: Cyberpunk - Flesh & Blood Recruitment Subject: Cyberpunk huh :)
Well I've always told ya Brom I'd love to be in your next one so count me in.
I'd most likely play a Croaker type character once again.
